Before you order
Questions about
the Gift Set
Everything you need to know before placing your order.
Is it safe to eat after 10 years?
Yes. The “best before” date is a legal requirement from 2016 – not the actual shelf life of the product.
Commercial sterilization at 120°C creates a shelf-stable product when the can remains sealed and undamaged.
The can becomes a hermetically sealed environment – stable as long as it remains physically intact.
This is well-established science. In 1851, a 38-year-old Appert can was opened at the London World Exhibition. The contents were reported as still edible.
The process of canned fish preservation allows products like this to safely age over time.
What makes it a good gift?
Last Catch 2016 is not available in any store – it exists only here, in limited quantity.
It arrives in a premium River Fish box – ready to give, no additional wrapping needed.
It is a gift with a story: a decade of aging, a technology that no longer exists, a vintage that is slowly disappearing. That is a conversation, not just a product.
How is it packaged?
Three cans are presented in a branded River Fish gift box, designed specifically for this format.
The box is compact, elegant and robust – suitable for shipping and for gifting directly.
No additional packaging is required. It arrives ready to present.
